The Rocket Pet Pro and V8 Animal have a lot of similarities as well as a few key differences. They both come with strong suction power and several features designed specifically for homes with one or more pets. This is important since cleaning up pet hair and dander has its’ own challenges, especially for a cordless stick vacuum cleaner. One thing that became evident when comparing these two vacuums: as usual Shark and Dyson have the technology to meet this challenge.
Before starting it is important to note one key quality of today’s cordless offerings. If you aren’t familiar with the latest lithium ion battery technology then you will be surprised to know that these batteries last much longer than you would expect. They provide power to very powerful motors that are on par with a similarly equipped upright vacuum but in a much lighter and more portable body. Both the Rocket and V8 Animal can run for 30 minutes or longer under normal conditions, which we will touch on in more detail below.

Tineco hasn’t been a known name in the vacuum cleaner industry for very long. Unlike some of the other major brands they have only been building cordless vacuums since 2016 when they launched their first model with a digital motor. Since then they have drastically improved on their lineup and now have 2 very formidable choices for homeowners: the A10 and A11. While they do have a lot of similarities there are some key differences that you need to be aware of so you make the best choice for your cleaning needs.
Cordless vacuum cleaners have sure come a long way since the initial generation of glorified power brooms. Today’s models have highly advanced batteries, powerful suction, all the attachments you need, and a long enough runtime that you almost forget there is no cord. You can find lightweight stick vacuums that are mostly designed for smooth floors as well as larger offerings that can deep clean carpets. This is exactly what the LG Cordzero A9 and Dyson V11 can do. They can tackle any type of floor just as good (or better) than a similarly sized corded upright.
The modern household typically contains a variety of floor types including carpeting, tile, laminate, hardwood, and/or linoleum. Each of these surfaces has their own cleaning requirements and if you want to keep your home free from dirt or other grime then you need to have a weekly gameplan. If you have smooth flooring then that gameplan needs to include a hard floor cleaner, preferably one that can both vacuum and wash the surface. The Hoover FloorMate Jet and Bissell CrossWave are two models that do just that.
When it comes to cordless vacuum technology Dyson has always been the brand pushing improvements into the marketplace every year. They were the first to come out with a cord-free model that could actually deep clean carpets. This was a complete 180 from prior generation vacuums that were little more than lightly powered brooms. It’s no surprise that they are the gold standard in the home cleaning industry, especially as they focus their efforts away from large corded vacuum cleaners which are becoming a thing of the past.
